This study aims to estimate direct health-related costs for victims of intimate partner violence (IPV) using nationwide linked data based on police reports and two healthcare registers in Finland from 2015 to 2020 ( = 21,073).

We used exact matching to create a reference group who had not been exposed to IPV.
